Oleh : Claudia Natalica (1400810067)
Latar Belakang
Grain amaranth (plant) has been
suggested as an alternative to marine
animals as a natural source of squalene
Amaranthus cruentus
Squalene
Natural triterpene
C30H50
Mevalonic Acid
Pathway
Triterpenes are not formed by an
extension of the now
familiar process of adding IPP to the
growing chain. Instead,
two molecules of FPP are joined tail-to-
tail to yield squalene
